The writer ordered a solo sashimi moriawase set and a kaisendon, both served with chawanmushi, seaweed wraps, mini udon, and mango milk pudding as standard sides. Thick, well-aged sashimi and a tidy table setting make it a solid pick for a date or a group meal. ## Good to know - **Address**: 228 Gonghang-daero, 112-ho, Gangseo-gu, Seoul, South Korea - **Location**: 394m from Balsan Station Exit 8 - **Hours**: 11:00 - 21:30 - **Closed**: Mondays - **Kaisendon**: ₩26,000 - **Premium kaisendon**: ₩37,000 - **Whole eel rice bowl (unagidon)**: ₩40,000 - **Sushi omakase set**: ₩50,000 - **Sashimi moriawase**: 1 person ₩37,000 / 2 people ₩62,000 / 3 people ₩82,000 - **Seating**: Bar seats, tables for 2–4, individual coat hooks behind seats - **Ordering**: Tablet ordering at every seat *as written by the visitor on Sep 7, 2026* Today I'm bringing you an honest review of Ilpum, a sushi and kaisendon (seafood rice bowl) specialist known for fresh, thick cuts of seafood, located between Magok and Balsan stations 🍣🍱 ## The vibe and seating at Ilpum Magok ![Exterior and entrance of Ilpum Magok](https://img.superchart.com/images/ilpum-magok-sashimi-moriawase-kaisendon/ilpum-magok-sashimi-moriawase-kaisendon-01-1j9le-966.webp) ![Interior bar seating and tables at Ilpum Magok](https://img.superchart.com/images/ilpum-magok-sashimi-moriawase-kaisendon/ilpum-magok-sashimi-moriawase-kaisendon-02-1n08c-966.webp) The place was super comfortable and actually bigger inside than it looked from outside!
